How to use it

Using your fingertips, spread the face mask on to your skin. Leave it to dry on your skin for up to 10 mins. Then, wash it off. Either soften it with a warm, wet flannel and then scrub it off, or jump in the shower. Moisturise your face afterwards.

We recommend using face masks once a week to start with, you can always increase to twice a week if your skin needs it. 

FAQs

Can I add more aloe vera juice to this recipe?

We tested this recipe with different amounts of aloe vera juice, and we think this recipe gives the best results. This is because aloe vera juice has a low pH that is irritating to your face unless you dilute it with water. If you use more aloe vera juice there is a good chance it will irritate your skin.
